Michigan State Police confirm three people are dead after a wrong-way crash on M-14 in Washtenaw County Wednesday morning.
It happened around 7:30am near Gotfredson Road in Plymouth Township.
The crash involved a Tesla, which later caught fire, and a Nissan Rogue, MSP Lt. Rene Gonzalez confirmed to WHMI News.
"At this time we're not sure if drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash. So that's something else that will be checked," he says.
"There will be autopsies done on the deceased to see if that played a factor in anything."
The driver of the Tesla is identified as a 53-year-old Jackson County man. The driver of the Rogue was a 31-year-old man. His passenger was a 27-year-old woman. Both were from Battle Creek.
Both directions of M-14 were reopened around 9am.
